The technique also improves vineyard water use efficiency and minimises over- and under-watering, thereby mitigating excessive vigour and vine stress. Precision viticulture tools with dynamic irrigation functionality thus provide valuable input into optimal irrigation decisions. ...
Collect data on their vines' progress. With actionable and accurate data points, vineyard owners can make informed and data-driven decisions on how best to take care of their vines—from pruning, irrigation, harvesting, down to pest and fungi control. ...
Both amateur and veteran viticulturists still suffer from inefficient spraying practices, which is not only a waste of resources, but can damage the quality of your yield and adversely affect the environment too: for instance, droplets of pesticide that miss your vine canopy end up in the soil, with potential long-term effects on your vineyard. ...
A remaining challenge with aerial imagery of vineyards is that we cannot actually see the vines themselves (depending on the trellis system), but rather the canopy a continuous row. ...

Less vigorous or sparse vines reflecting both more visible and near-infrared light. What many do not know, is that NDVI was not designed to measure plant vigor. ...

Vine leaf area index has a great impact on berry quality. This study was conducted to determine whether vine leaf area index could be estimated, and mapped through normalized difference vegetation index (NDVI) ground-based measurements. The NDVI measurements were performed using a Greenseeker (N-Tech Industires, Ukiah, CA and Oklahoma State Univ., Stillwater), ...
